Re-Twisting Your DreadLocks

Re-Twisting your locks is very straight forward. For detailed information on twisting and re-twisting your locks with Knatty Dread Cream check out the twisting and re-twisting section here.

You simply spin the lock until it us under enough tension to compress it while at the same time applying some dread cream directly to the dread, working it in as you twist it around and around, always to the right or "clockwise". Finally you pin, clip, or attach the dread in some manner to hold it in this twisted position while you dry it, usually with the help of a hair dryer.

Take care not to over heat the hair as it will do more harm than good. Let it dry completely and sit for at least 3 hours if possible. Then you can release or un-clip the dreads. For more detailed
